A block connector is provide to facilitate a disengaging operation. The block connector invention is constructed by placing an upper housing A and a lower housing B one over the other. Lock projections A7, A8 are provided at front and rear sides of the left and right side surfaces of the upper housing A, and corresponding lock holes B3, B5 are provided in the lower housing B. The lock projections A7, A8 are formed with locking surfaces A7b, A8b and disengagement guide surfaces A7c, A8c for smoothly disengaging the lock projections A7, A8 from the lock holes B3, B5. Further, jig insertion holes B6 for inserting a disengaging jig E are formed in the front surface of the lower housing B. The lock projection A7 and the lock hole B3 can be disengaged by inserting the disengaging jig E into the jig insertion hole B6 and prizing the jig insertion hole B6 with the disengaging jig E. Thereafter, if the forcibly opened front ends of the housings A, B are rotated about the rear ends thereof, the lock projections A8 and the lock holes B5 can be disengaged.

[ What is claimed is:] [1.] A block connector comprising a plurality of housings placed substantially one over another, such that each of said housings has at least one other of the housings adjacent thereto to define at least one pair of adjacent housings,at least one lock pair provided on each said pair of adjacent housings and comprising a resiliently deflectable lock portion on a selected one of said housings in said pair of adjacent housings and an engaging portion on the other of said housings in the pair of adjacent housings, said lock portion and said engaging portion being engageable with each other when the housings are placed substantially one over the other, anda jig insertion opening provided between the housings in the pair of housings, such that said jig insertion opening is defined by portions of each of said housings in said pair of housings, said jig insertion opening being disposed in a position spaced from the lock pair so that the jig does not engage the resiliently deflectable lock portion and forces exerted by a jig on the housings at the jig insertion opening are substantially isolated from the resiliently deflectable lock portion, whereby said resiliently deflectable lock portion is not overdeflected by a jig during separation of the housings from one another.
